Step 3. Assign Permissions on Infrastructure Inventory Objects
To view and work with virtual infrastructure objects in Veeam ONE, the user must have appropriate permissions on these objects set in the VMware vSphere or VMware Cloud Director inventory.
Connect to vCenter Server or standalone host with vSphere Client and assign permissions on objects to which the user must have access.
The following table shows minimal required privileges on VMware vSphere inventory objects.
VI Inventory Object | VMware vSphere Privilege |
vCenter Server (root) | Read-only |
Virtual Machine |
|
1 Required to access VM console in Veeam ONE Client
Note: |
If you assign permissions to container objects (such as hosts, resource pools or vApps), consider enabling propagation. In this case, all new child objects that may be added to the container in future will become available to the user. |
VMware Cloud Director Permissions
Connect to VMware Cloud Director and assign permissions on objects to which the user must have access.
The following table shows minimal required roles for VMware Cloud Director inventory objects.
VI Inventory Object | VMware Cloud Director Role |
|---|---|
vCloud Director (root) | System Administrator |
Organization | Console access only |
